With the nal uno cial results posted, it appears Ken Cruz has won a seat on the Lakewood City Council in Ward 3, and Bill Furman has won the Ward 4 seat in the March 25 special election. After the nal slate of ballots was tallied, in Ward 3, Cruz was ahead by more than 700 votes over his nearest competitor, Pete Roybal.
For Cruz, the main pillars of his campaign were helping small businesses, getting more people engaged with local government — particularly younger people — and making a better e ort to help people experiencing homelessness.
into Awareness’ aims to help advance the wellbeing of people living with disabilities
BY NATALIE KERR SPECIAL TO COLORADO COMMUNITY MEDIA
As the March celebration of Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month comes to a close, the Developmental Disabilities Resource Center is hosting its Spring into Awareness event to continue celebrating and supporting people with di erent abilities all year.
“While this event is being held in April, it’s important to remember that working for inclusion is something that needs to happen throughout the year, not just end at the month,” DDRC
Communications Director Michele Majeune said.
From 5-7 p.m. April 8 at the Lakewood Fair eld Inn/Denver West Federal Center, participants can nd opportunities to network with business leaders, resource providers and other like-minded individuals to help advance the goals and wellbeing of people living with disabilities. ere will also be brief remarks from the event hosts, light bites and refreshments and door prizes.
e venue is fully ADA-accessible, with entrance ramps and handicap spaces, although there will not be sign language interpretation provided at the event.
e event is a collaboration between the DDRC, the West Metro Chamber of Commerce and the Fair eld Inn. Fair eld is covering the costs of the event. Food and beverage will be pro-
vided by Flights Wine Cafe, Ballmer Peak Distillery and Nicolo’s Pizza.
“ ere’ll be a lot of opportunities for connections and conversation, meeting other people who are either like-minded or interested in the idea of how to build community, how to be inclusive, and in particular, being inclusive of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities,” Majeune said.
e DDRC celebrated its 60year anniversary last year, having been established in 1964 by parents who were struggling to access education for their children. Children and adults were often placed in segregated school and work environments, and families were often pressured to institutionalize their loved ones if they had an intellectual or developmental disability.
“I think the biggest thing, what I told a lot of people tonight, is it’s not just a win for me. It’s a win that’s about the people,” Cruz told the Je co Transcript after results came in Tuesday night. “I wanted to make sure this campaign was not about me as an individual ... but to make sure that people are seen, heard and valued.”
Cruz said he wants to work with Lakewood’s Economic Development Division to collect more data that would help businesses, particularly minorityowned businesses.
“It’s one thing if we’re trying to be inclusive and businessfriendly, but if we don’t have systems to collect accurate data, then we’re already behind the game,” Cruz said. “With the restaurant exodus in Denver, Lakewood has a real opportunity to open the door and create incentives, not just for restaurants.” Cruz said he wants to bring his experience as an HOA president to connect more people with local government.

Records show top Je co o cials deleted text messages about David Weiss, which isn’t illegal
BY SUZIE GLASSMAN SGLASSMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
When a recent public records request asked for text messages between the Je erson County Schools superintendent, top cabinet o cials and the school board about the termination of district employee David Weiss last December, most replies came back the same: “I don’t have any text messages related to this request.”
Board member Mary Parker was the exception. She preserved and submitted a series of texts, ful lling the request in full. Others, including board members, Danielle Varda and Michelle Applegate, Chief Human Resources O cer Amanda Pierorazio and Chief Legal Counsel Julie Tolleson kept a portion of the text thread. Her messages included exchanges with Superintendent Tracy Dorland and other district leaders discussing internal investigations, communication strategy and how to respond to public and media inquiries following Weiss’ dismissal after the Je erson County Sheri ’s o ce noti ed Dorland that Weiss was under investigation for possessing child pornography.
According to records released by the
district, Dorland and Chief of Schools Lisa Relou, responded that they had no text messages responsive to the request.
However, Parker’s texts show that both Dorland and Relou engaged in text conversations about the Weiss case with her and the rest of the board members, suggesting that those messages were deleted after the fact.
Parker’s preservation of these texts provides a rare look into how district leaders managed communications during a period of high public interest.
While nothing in the text exchange suggests district leaders hid anything from the public, the messages show a coordinated conversation about how best to respond to media and community inquiries and manage messaging around Weiss’ termination.
Weiss was found dead in Maryland after traveling there shortly following his termination. e medical examiner ruled his death a suicide. e investigation into the possession of child pornography charges against him by the Jefferson County Sheri ’s O ce remains ongoing.

Driven by years of pressure from parents and advocates, Colorado lawmakers are considering a bill that would require all schools to screen early elementary students for signs of dyslexia, an e ort supporters say is critical to catching reading struggles before they deepen. Last fall, desperate parents pleaded with the state’s Board of Education to implement screening without delay, sharing stories of children who slipped through the cracks because no one recognized the signs.
Senate Bill 25-200, sponsored by Sen. Chris Kolker, D-Littleton, and co-sponsored by Sen. Kyle Mullica, D- ornton, Rep. Eliza Hamrick, D-Centennial, and Rep. Matt Soper, R-Delta, would require school districts to implement a universal dyslexia screener or create their own process for identifying students with signs of dyslexia by the 2026-27 school year.
Kolker, who chairs the Senate Education Committee, described the bill as a foundational shift in how Colorado addresses reading struggles.
“If we have the ability to identify dyslexia in every child, then we have a responsibility to do it,” he said in an interview.
Under the bill, dyslexia screening would begin in kindergarten and continue through third grade.
e bill outlines speci c skills that any dyslexia screener must assess, including
trict’s request for text communications with concern, saying that while convenient, texting can blur the lines between informal conversation and o cial records.
“I think we are best served to be more public about how we are communicating,” she said.
Under Je co’s current records retention policy, deleting such communications is permitted. e policy states that electronic communications may be deleted on a routine basis unless district policy or state or federal law requires them to be retained.
Colorado’s Open Records Act requires agencies to disclose existing records but does not mandate their retention.
Records retention policies vary across districts and agencies in Colorado. In Je co, the district follows a records management manual developed in collaboration with the Colorado State Archives. at manual encourages public entities to retain records that re ect o cial business decisions and notes that sound recordkeeping supports transparency and public trust.
How district leaders use texts
During a Feb. 28 board retreat, board members and senior sta discussed how and when text messaging is used.
Relou acknowledged that texts are often used to notify members of urgent events or to ag incoming emails but said the use had increased in recent weeks.
Dorland said texting is sometimes the
Colorado’s Open Records Act doesn’t require government agencies to retain emails and texts, only to produce what they have when a request is made.
fastest way to alert board members to issues already appearing on social media.
Still, Varda raised concerns about transparency, questioning whether some communications were being handled by text speci cally to avoid the public nature of email.
“I just want to make sure that there’s transparency,” she said. “Sometimes texts are being sent to avoid emails to be public and transparent.”
phonological awareness, rapid automatized naming, word decoding and oral reading uency, which are skills that are commonly associated with early signs of dyslexia.
By adding these criteria to state law, the bill requires the Colorado Department of Education to ensure that any interim literacy assessments it approves for use under the READ Act include tools or subtests that can reliably identify students at risk for dyslexia.
Interim assessments are periodic evaluations used by schools throughout the year to monitor students’ reading progress and identify those who may need additional support.
“ is gets those skills, like rapid naming and alphabetic knowledge, into statute, which means CDE has to include them in its next assessment review,” said Lindsay Drakos, co-chair of COKID, a parent dyslexia advocacy organization.
“So even if screening won’t be perfect at rst, districts will at least have to start, and they’ll be more prepared once the assessment list changes.”
e next interim assessment review process will take place in 2026.
Cost concerns and mitigations
Kolker said some reading assessments that districts currently use to determine how well students are reading, such as Curriculum Associates’ i-Ready Diagnostic, don’t adequately screen for dyslexia — a common learning disability that a ects word recognition, spelling and decoding skills despite typical intelligence and classroom instruction.
e bill doesn’t come with a scal note, meaning no money is available for districts to purchase screening materials, so districts will be allowed to use a separate
dyslexia screener if their current interim assessment doesn’t meet the new standards.
Alternatives such as the Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Skills, referred to as DIBELS, or Acadience Reading, both of which are designed to detect early signs of dyslexia, are free to download and administer manually.
Schools seeking additional support, such as training, digital scoring and progress monitoring, can access these tools at no cost through the state’s Early Literacy Assessment Tool grant, which Kolker said could cover nearly every district in Colorado.
“No one who has applied for ELAT has been turned away,” Drakos said. “It covers DIBELS, which already includes all the required subtests, and it comes with training and progress monitoring. Most of the state already uses it.”
While the ELAT grant helps bridge current gaps, Kolker noted that broader investments will likely have to wait.
“We’re forecasting budget de cits, so we’re trying to do what we can while we wait,” he said. “ is is not an unfunded mandate. is is building the foundation.”
e bill also makes school readiness assessments for kindergartners optional. Kolker said the current kindergarten readiness assessments are poorly understood and inconsistently used.
“Districts say they don’t even know what happens to the data,” he said. “Let’s focus on where the de ciencies are with literacy, especially now that we have universal preschool and expect kids to be more ready.”
Some opposition to the bill may come from the Governor’s o ce, which has expressed concern over eliminating the readiness assessments, but Kolker said
he’s still waiting for a clear explanation of how that data is used.
He emphasized that the dyslexia screening provision has bipartisan support and backing from education groups such as the Colorado Association of School Executives and the Colorado Association of School Boards.
e bill represents a hard-won milestone for Drakos, who has advocated on this issue since 2019.
“We’ve been ghting for this since 2019, when barely any states required screening,” Drakos said. “Now 43 do, and we’re still waiting. We’re so close. is has to be the year.”
e bill is scheduled for public testimony before the Senate Education Committee at 1 p.m. on March 31.
Regular readers of this column know that I’m a sucker for new and innovative products. Many of them are on display each year at the National Association of Home Builders’ annual International Builders’ Show (IBS), which was held in Las Vegas the last week of February.
For me, as a real estate professional, IBS is comparable in interest to what the Consumer Electronics Show (now CES) is to geeks. This is where we learn about new concepts in manufacturing, both of home building materials and of houses themselves.
There were many “smart home” products promoted at IBS, including an app called OliverIQ, which claims to tie together all of one’s smart home devices into “smart home as a service” (SHaaS). At right is a screenshot of this app shown on an iPhone.
Literally hundreds of companies purchased exhibit space at February’s IBS show in Las Vegas, and I wish I could have attended, but here are some of the new or improved products which I learned about from press reports.
Lighting is an important part of any home, and one of the innovations that caught my attention was Alloy LED’s SurfaFlex 1 Tape Light. It is demonstrated in the picture below, providing a nice alternative to indirect lighting, which was also on display in various forms by other vendors.
When I visited a Scottsdale hotel several years ago, I was captivated by the folding garage door on its restaurant. Well, that concept is now going mainstream, albeit at a cost many home builders or homeowners might not feel they could justify.
Instead of the garage door traveling overhead on rails, rendering that part of the ceiling inaccessible and unusable, this garage door folds itself at the top of the opening. Clopay’s VertiStack garage door, shown below, won “Best of Show” at this year’s IBS.
Another product concept that caught my attention was under-counter refrigerator and freezer drawers, great for a wet bar, shown here between a couple beverage coolers.
I’m listing a home next month (or sooner) that has a fully equipped woodworking shop in the basement with lots of expensive woodworking equipment, most of which are Delta branded — table saw, planer, drill press, band saw, miter saw, and sawdust vacuum, plus hand power tools. Help me help the seller liquidate these tools before we put his home on the market. Call me at 303-525-1851

I saw my first example of a wall of sliding glass panels that opened onto a patio (with outdoor kitchen, of course) in a house in Lakewood’s Solterra subdivision that I helped a client purchase several years ago. I haven’t seen others quite as large and dramatic since, but maybe they’ll catch on following the display of a “multi-slide door” at IBS. They are also sold as pocket doors, but more typically stack into the width of one panel.

I’ve written about this before, but it bears repeating. As a finicky editor, it has always bothered me that my fellow agents don’t know what is and isn’t the proper legal description.
I analyzed 100 listing on REcolorado, our local MLS, and only 8 of them had a clean legal description. Let me explain.
Most non-rural listings are in a subdivision, and are legally described by the name of the subdivision plus the block and lot numbers. But almost every listing agent inserts the “legal description” provided by the Realist report obtained via the MLS. That description also contains a Section, Township, and Range as well as the size of the parcel in addition to the subdivision, block and lot, like this from a recent listing of mine:
SECTION 34 TOWNSHIP 02 RANGE 69 QTR NE SUBDIVISIONCD 138000 SUBDIVISIONNAME CLUB CREST FLG #2 BLOCK 003 LOT 0011 SIZE: 11001 TRACT VALUE: .253

Hi, Jim. This is Rita Levine. I just wanted to give you feedback, and I'm sure you already know this, but I closed on a home recently, and my broker was Chuck Brown. I just wanted to let you know he was the best real estate agent I have ever had, and this is my ninth house in three states. So, he was just so accommodating, so helpful, and so patient because we've been looking for four and a half years trying to find somebody that would do a contingency and find something I could afford.
And so, I just wanted to let you know how much I greatly appreciate his assistance and what a wonderful person he is.
I'm just really happy I had the opportunity to get to know him, and I'm so happy when I met with you that you brought him along and recommended that he would be the best person for me to work with because he absolutely was the best person to work with.
So, just giving you feedback, and I'm sure that's much better than any complaint because many times people only call to complain about things, and I just like to always let people know when somebody went way beyond what was expected of them, and he certainly did that. So, thanks again, and let him know that I let you know. Okay, have a great day. Bye-bye.

Last week, I wrote about the National Association of Realtors’ (NAR’s) Clear Cooperation Policy (CCP), which some major brokerages would like to see abolished, claiming that it is anti-competitive.
However, NAR, bolstered by an unsolicited determination by the U.S. Department of Justice that the CCP by itself was not anti-competitive, announced last week that it was retaining the policy, while throwing some crumbs to objectors in the form of a new MLS policy called “Multiple Listing Options for Sellers.”
That new policy was effective immediately (March 25, 2025), but gave MLSs until September 30th to implement it. The irony is that our MLS and possibly many others already offer these “new listing options” specified in NAR’s new policy. Those options are spelled out as follows:
1) A consumer will have the option to market their home as a “delayed marketing exempt listing.” This means a seller can instruct their listing agent to delay the marketing of their listing by other agents outside the listing firm through IDX or syndication for a period of time. REcolorado already has this feature, a “Coming Soon” status that is limited to 7 days, during which no showings may occur, including by the listing agent.
2) During the delayed marketing period, the home seller and the listing agent can market the listing in a manner consistent with the seller’s needs and interests. At the same time, the delayed marketing exempt listing will still be available to other MLS Participants through the MLS platform so they can inform their consumers about the property. That’s how “Coming Soon” status works.
3) Each MLS will have discretion to determine a delayed marketing period that is most
suitable for their local marketplace. REcolorado set that period as 7 days.
4) Listing agents representing sellers who choose to delay the public marketing of their listing must secure from their seller a signed disclosure documenting the seller’s informed consent to waive the benefits of immediate public marketing through IDX and syndication. Seller disclosure is required for both delayed marketing exempt listings and office exclusive exempt listings. The Colorado Real Estate Commission dictates that sellers be advised that restricting the exposure of their listing may not be in the public interest, but I don’t believe that such disclosures are being made to sellers by agents who convince sellers to keep their listing visible only to fellow agents within the same brokerage.
As I noted in last week’s column, listing agents can simply check a box during data entry to keep a listing off other broker websites, including realtor.com, redfin.com, and Zillow.com.
In summary, REcolorado has nothing to do to comply with this new “rule.”
My only wish is that NAR would disallow the “office exclusive” policy, which is itself anticompetitive, in that it disadvantages independent brokers and small brokerages, which, like small businesses, are the real workhorses of the real estate industry.
Does State Law Trump
Alabama has enacted a law that buyers do not need to sign an agreement with a broker in order to be shown a home for sale, directly overriding a key part of last year’s NAR settlement. The local Realtor Association lobbied for the bill, saying it put undue duress on buyers and was not in the best interest of consumers.

As local paleontologist Amy Atwater says: “Every fossil tells a story.”
And Atwater is excited to tell people all about them — whether that’s in-person at Dinosaur Ridge or in her new children’s book.
Atwater, a Conifer resident and director of paleontology at Dinosaur Ridge, said she loves telling people all about the unique treasure trove of fossils, footprints and other paleontological resources the Golden-Morrison area has.
She said many locals aren’t aware that some of the most iconic dinosaurs to ever walk the earth were fossilized and found in their own backyards.
To that end, she penned “ e Fossil Keeper’s Treasure,” a book that highlights 10 types of fossils that are embossed so readers can touch and interact with them. e fossils depicted span prehistoric eras and parts of the world, including some of Colorado’s prehistoric fauna.
Atwater said the book’s target audience is children ages 5-10, but she believes people of all ages could enjoy the beautiful artwork by Uruguay-based artist Natalia Cardozo.
“ e Fossil Keeper’s Treasure” is available for purchase online, at the Dinosaur
Ridge Visitor’s Center and at the Mines Museum of Earth Science.
Atwater has been speaking at Denverarea schools recently to promote both the book and Dinosaur Ridge, and said she hopes to visit more schools in the Golden-Morrison area too. She hopes to foster children’s “curiosity and wonder about the natural world,” and promote stewardship for all natural resources.
“Every scientist was once a curious kid,” Atwater said.
Fossils that inspire; people that preserve
As Atwater explained, Colorado — and the Golden-Morrison area speci cally — are the bene ciaries of the paleontological lottery.
Not only did dinosaurs roam Colorado but many of them were buried in muddy, sandy and silty ground that were “the perfect conditions” for long-term preservation, Atwater said.
en, the Rocky Mountains created an uplift that — millions of years later — exposed the layers containing those fossils.
So, the reason people can visit Dinosaur Ridge, Golden’s Triceratops Trail and other spots around Colorado is because we’re here at “the perfect sweet spot” geologically, Atwater said. Too soon and the fossils, footprints, etc. wouldn’t be visible; too late and they probably would’ve eroded away, she ex-
plained.
Even though this is in the context of thousands if not millions of years, Atwater and coworker Kristen Kidd emphasized how important Dinosaur Ridge’s preservation e orts are.
e ridge is “jam-packed” with tactile learning opportunities, they said, describing how it is essentially an outdoor laboratory that people of all backgrounds and ages — from small children to doctoral students — can learn from.
Plus, Atwater described how she’s met several scientists who don’t study paleontology but who rst discovered their love of science through dinosaurs, fossils and the like.
Kidd, director of marketing and development, said that idea can also be seen in events like Dinosaur Ridge’s science quiz bowl for high school students, where questions range from anatomy to geology.
us, the Friends of Dinosaur Ridge want to preserve the fossils, footprints and more to educate and inspire future generations.
Atwater and Kidd summarized the idea as: “ e dinosaurs might be extinct, but the science is not.”
ey encouraged people to stop by the Dinosaur Ridge site on April 25, which will be an SCFD Free Da y with free entry to the exhibit hall.

Along with its annual summer camps, which still have some open spots, Kidd encouraged people to register for the April 5 bene t gala, “Dinos, Diners, and Drive-Ins: Let’s Rock Out for the Ridge!” For more information, visit dinoridge. org.

Wheat Ridge’s Summer Sun Camp program recently received a $10,000 grant from the Je Co Open Space Foundation’s Nature’s Next Stewards (NNS) program to support a second weekly eld trip for all campers throughout the summer at no additional cost to the participating families. Each week, the second eld trip will take campers to outdoor recreation sites along the Front Range and incorporate outdoor
education components.
“ anks to the generous support of the Je co Open Space Foundation’s Nature’s Next Stewards program, we are able to enhance our beloved Summer Sun Camp experience and provide even more opportunities for our campers to explore the natural beauty of our region,” Wheat Ridge Mayor Pro Tem Korey Stites said.
“ ese eld trips will not only create lasting memories but also foster a deep love and respect for the outdoors in our young
campers, ensuring they become the next generation of environmental stewards.” is year, Wheat Ridge’s Summer Sun Camp program was also able to expand by 45%, bringing the total number of campers from 66 to 96.
is project was made possible with funding from Mile High Stadium District, Je erson County and Je co Open Space Foundation.
e Nature’s Next Stewards grant program is designed to inspire organizations
to give children quality outdoor experiences that will cause them to love and care for nature and public lands. e NNS program has been funded by individual and business donations and by the Je erson County Commissioners allocating a portion of the Denver Broncos sale proceeds (from the Metropolitan Football Stadium District) to this endeavor.

e two entities Cruz wants to create would be a youth advisory council as well as an unhoused advisory council that would include members who have experienced homelessness, but were able to overcome their situation, and advise the city on such matters.
In Ward 4, Furman was ahead by more than 1,100 votes over his nearest competitor, Diane Rhodes.
Furman told the Transcript he was glad that his campaign was successful as he was able to focus on important issues.
“It was a very positive race. I am excited to address the issues of housing a ordability,” he said.
Regarding the win, Furman said, “A lot of it was because people are interested in the same concerns I have, which are continuing the e orts that this current council is doing and looking at issues of housing a ordability.
“It’ll be good to be able to prove to people that we can continue to support the things that the community is concerned about, which is supporting, enhancing, even increasing our park space while at
the same time addressing housing affordability.”
Furman said he wants to look at making it easier to develop homes on smaller lots, e ectively making properties cheaper to buy. He also said he wants to continue to work with the council on current initiatives and to learn more about the issues the city faces.
e councilman-elect also said he wants to focus on how Lakewood adheres to state laws regarding building energy e ciency, or how much and what types of energy they use.
Regarding building energy e ciency, Furman said, “ e question we have is the same a lot of cities have. I was on one of the advisory groups as they were looking at the monitoring of building energy use.
“ e next step for the city is to start looking at what they’re gonna make for their goals and how ambitious they’ll get. It is good to be ambitious. I think we can also learn a few lessons from the challenges that Denver went through.” e election was to ll vacancies left by Rebekah Stewart, who resigned from her Ward 3 seat after being elected to Colorado House District 30, and Rich Olver, who stepped down from his Ward 4 seat at the end of 2024.

2025 Boulder gathering will feature Cynthia Erivo of ‘Wicked’
BY ELISABETH SLAY ESLAY@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
e University of Colorado Boulder Conference on World A airs, also known as the CWA, is set to return for its 77th year on April 7-10, with a wide range of panels, addresses and discussions on various topics from cybersecurity to fashion.
e conference, which takes place at 1344 Grandview Ave. in Boulder, will kick o with a keynote event on April 7 featuring “Wicked” star Cynthia Erivo. e ticketed event will take place from 7-8:30 p.m. at the Macky Auditorium Concert Hall.
Jon Leslie, vice chancellor of communications at the UC Boulder, describes the conference as one of the university’s longeststanding traditions.
Leslie said members of the CU Boulder community, including students, faculty, sta and alumni, come together to organize and run the event, which sets it apart from other academic conferences.
“It is a really unique format where members of the community volunteer to work with our students and members of our faculty and sta to put together a really interesting and lively mixture of panels, keynotes and other types of content that engage topics of the day across di erent disciplines, di erent perspectives and, really, in a way that is more grassroots than you might think of a typical kind of academic conference,” Leslie said.
Noteworthy speakers from previous CWA events include Eleanor Roosevelt, Molly Ivins, Roger Ebert, Amanda Gorman and Steve Wozniak. is year, there will be more than 50 speakers participating in about 50 panels. For those unable to attend in person, all panels will be available for live streaming, ensuring anyone can engage with the content from anywhere.
Last year, CWA drew approximately 1,500 in-person attendees and 1,000 online viewers. As of March 21, more than 1,000 people have registered to attend this year’s event, and the conference can accommodate up to 2,500 attendees.
is year’s conference promises a wide range of panels and discussions on topics
Fifty years ago, disability advocates had a di cult time having their voices heard. People with disabilities gained legal protection for their civil rights in 1973, and not until the Americans with Disabilities Act in 1990 was it ensured that people with disabilities would have equal treatment and equal access to employment opportunities and public accommodations.
Today, the DDRC continues to advocate for inclusive, community-integrated employment that allows people to work for real pay, not in segregated workshops, and o ers 12 direct services to support people with disabilities of all ages and their families.
“We’ve made enormous progress in welcoming people with disabilities and providing them with the kind of support that they need in their daily lives to make sure that
including cybersecurity, innovation, leadership, the future of democracy, neuroscience, addiction and more.
Laura Harder, president of the Northern Colorado Information Systems Security Association, will return to the conference for the third time.
As a speaker on three panels covering geopolitics, cyber actors and the space domain, Harder is excited to engage in dynamic discussions with attendees.
“ e Conference on World A airs is really interesting,” Harder said. “As a public speaker, typically you have the opportunity to present your voice and opinion, and it’s very one-sided … but the Conference on World A airs is really di erent in that it turns all of that upside down.”
Harder said while one is selected as a panelist based on their ideas, the audience actively participates in asking additional questions and the conversation is more audience-led.
A beloved tradition at CWA is the Ebert Interruptus, named for the lm critic Roger Ebert, who used to lead a weeklong deepdive discussion into one lm each year. is year, inspired by the keynote event with Erivo, the event will feature a three-day exploration of “ e Wizard of Oz.”
Leslie highlighted the interactive nature of the CWA.
“Folks have the opportunity to write questions and have them sent up to the moderators, and they take those in real time, so there’s also the opportunity to engage in the conversations,” he said.
Leslie also looks forward to the unique atmosphere the conference creates, where people from various backgrounds come together to engage with one another.
“CWA is a time when the campus comes to life in a di erent way based on the mixture and mingling of folks you don’t normally see on campus, and that energy is something that really creates joy for me when I see it,”
Leslie said.
During this time, Leslie said he believes this kind of event is more important than ever.
“ is kind of event is something that we need as much of as we can get right now,” Leslie said. “At a time when I think di cult conversations are hard to have — and I think folks might be reluctant to engage on topics that could cause potential con ict — creating a format and a visible one where we can have some of those conversations. We can bring di erent perspectives together in a

Spring into Awareness kicks o a full season of events from the DDRC, including upcoming pickleball and golf tournaments which will help fundraise DDRC programs and resources. is event is free, though registration is requested and can be completed on Eventbrite.com.
e DDRC hopes the event will o er people a chance to connect with others in the community who can help support them and inspire more action to improve the lives of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, Majeune said.
“As we look at the world and try to think of how are we more welcoming to all kinds of people, remember that people with intellectual and developmental disabilities both deserve and have a right to be included,” Majeune said.
way that’s constructive and hopefully fun.”
Charlotte Andresen, a CU Boulder senior from ornton and the student chief of sta for the event, has been volunteering with the conference for years. She helps with organizing classroom visits, creating panels and ensuring the smooth running of the event.
“I think it’s such a unique thing to bring in so many di erent perspectives and so many diverse views on things,” Andresen said. “We have panels where it will be somebody who’s more scienti c or academic, and then there’s somebody who’s a comedian. Having that interaction and seeing what they come up with provides such great insight, and I think it’s something we de nitely need in the world today.”
Jordan Brooks, a CU student and student volunteer coordinator for the CWA, said she has been involved with school functions since she was in high school and after hearing about the conference from a friend she decided to partake in it.
“I didn’t know what the organization was, but once I found out it was more than politics and international a airs, I was hooked,” Brooks said. “I love that we could organize a conference that had an impact on campus, but was about things I was truly interested in.”
Brooks is excited for the keynote event with Erivo and looks forward to hearing diverse perspectives.
“ is conference can let you escape the polarizing world and make you open your mind to views that don’t align with your own,” Brooks said. “ is conference is such an amazing and enriching experience, where I have really learned a lot about myself as a leader and about the world.”

e discussion did not lead to a formal resolution or policy change during the retreat. Still, board members agreed to continue examining how the district uses text messaging and how those practices intersect with transparency expectations.
What the law says about record retention Colorado’s Open Records Act, rst enacted in 1969, was designed to give the public access to the records of government bodies at all levels. e law de nes public records broadly, including any writings made, maintained or kept by a public entity in connection with o cial functions.
at includes emails and text messages, but only if they still exist.
CORA doesn’t require government agencies to retain those records, only to produce what they have when a request is made. In practice, that means public ocials can legally delete texts unless another law or policy requires them to be kept.
e Colorado State Archives o ers model retention schedules for schools and other local agencies, and districts are encouraged, but not required, to adopt them.
In Je co’s case, the district’s policy explicitly allows electronic messages to be deleted routinely unless otherwise required by law. at puts the burden of transparency on the o cials themselves and their judgment about what to keep and what to erase.
e result is a patchwork of practices
across the state. Some agencies retain texts for several years, while others allow for deletion after a few days or weeks unless agged as part of an o cial record.
e rise of encrypted, auto-deleting messaging apps like Signal has added a new layer of opacity. A recent investigation by Colorado Politics found that top aides to Denver’s mayor Signal to discuss sensitive topics like immigration enforcement with messages disappearing shortly after being read, leaving no trace for public scrutiny.
“ e records retention laws in Colorado are pretty weak,” said Je Roberts, executive director of the Colorado Freedom of Information Coalition. “ ey give a lot of discretion to the sender and receiver of the message to decide what’s important to keep, what ts the records retention schedule, and the public may never get to
see communications that could be really important for understanding what happened.” is ambiguity leaves room for selective recordkeeping — where communications that re ect favorably on leadership may be saved while others are deleted.
“ ere’s not really any other party to decide what’s important to keep,” Roberts said. “If a public o cial decides a message doesn’t matter, it can be deleted immediately, and the public or a journalist might never know it existed, even if it turns out to be meaningful in understanding a public decision.
“ e whole point of having an open records law is to allow the public to scrutinize government activity,” Roberts said. “But you can’t scrutinize what no longer exists.”
One of the most famous legends in rock and roll is that Pink Floyd’s album, “Dark Side of the Moon,” syncs up with the 1939 classic, “ e Wizard of Oz.” While the band has always denied any intentional connection, there are certain moments that lend credence to the notion.
“I was in high school when I rst heard the urban legend,” said Kent Adamson, lead vocalist for e Crazy Diamonds progressive rock group. “ ere are lots of coincidences when you try it, especially in the rst part of the album. It’s uncanny how it lines up sometimes.”
appealed to the 10-person band, which was formed out of members of the Colorado Art Rock Society, which is a group for fans of progressive rock (bands like ELP, Genesis and Porcupine Tree).
In honor of the pairing of music and lm in fun and experimental ways, e Oriental eater, 4335 W. 44th Ave. in Denver, is hosting the Dark Side of the Movie Experience at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, April 11.
e evening will begin with Royale w/ Cheese, who will be performing the soundtrack to Quentin Tarantino’s immortal “Pulp Fiction” while the lm plays on the big screen. Next will be Lt. Dan & e New Legs performing a selection of hits from the blockbuster, “Forest Gump.”
And nally, e Crazy Diamonds will take to the stage to perform “Dark Side of the Moon” in sync with a screening of “ e Wizard of Oz.”
e o er to play the show came to e Crazy Diamonds after a recent performance of “Dark Side of the Moon” in full at Nissi’s in Lafayette. e idea really
“We get together once a month and talk about the music we love and there’s also the once-ayear Prog Fest concert, where members do tributes to di erent prog rock bands,” Adamson explained. “ is year there was supposed to be a di erent headliner but when that fell through, we put on a show of ‘Dark Side’ because we thought it would pull people in.”
And it did.
It’s easy to understand why — “Dark Side of the Moon” is the fourth best-selling album of all time, an album music fans of all ages have been returning to for generations. Add in a renewed interest in all things Oz, thanks to “Wicked,” and you have a perfect pairing.
“It’s just one of those timeless pieces of music and anyone who appreciates music will enjoy seeing it played authentically live,” Adamson said. “When you have this cool tie to a famous urban legend about one of the greatest movies of all time, it just gets more interesting.”

Howd-E! It’s a helluva time at Mines’ E-Days
Igrew up here in Golden, as most of you probably know. My Dad went to the Colorado School of Mines, class of 1956, and half of the kids in my neighborhood had parents that were professors or were currently students there themselves. So, it should come as no surprise that one of the very rst songs I learned all the words to was this one:
THE MINING ENGINEER
I wish I had a barrel of rum and sugar three hundred pounds, the college bell to mix it in and a clapper to stir it ‘round. Like every honest fellow, I take my whiskey clear, I’m a ramblin’ wreck from Golden Tech, a helluva engineer. A helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva engineer. A helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva engineer. Like every honest fellow, I take my whiskey clear, I’m a ramblin’ wreck from Golden Tech, a helluva engineer. Hail, hail, the gang’s all here. What the hell do we care as long as we get our share. Hail, hail, the gang’s all here.
M-I-N-E-S What the hell do we care now?
I had to take a little liberty with the correct poetic form so it didn’t take up the entire page, but if you have no idea what that song is, you haven’t lived in Golden very long. Of course, that’s the CSM ght song. But even if you knew that, you probably also know that there are a few other colleges around the country that use a variation of it, namely South Dakota Mines and the most fa-
mous, Georgia Tech.

Clarke’s Concert of the Week — Laura Jane Grace at Meow Wolf
Laura Jane Grace is one of the most important gures in the contemporary indie rock world. Not only is she the frontperson of Against Me!, one of the great early 2000s rock bands, but when she went public with her gender transition in 2012, she became an icon for trans people and showed the power of embracing your true self.
Plus, she continued to make top notch rock music under her own name.
Last year Grace released her newest album, “Hole in My Head,” and it proved she can still wield a sharp pen and write some killer ri s. In support of the release, she and e Mississippi Medicals will perform atMeow Wolf’s e Perplexiplex, 1338 1st St. in Denver, at 8 p.m. on Saturday, April 5. She’ll be joined by openers Alex Lahey and Rodeo Boys. Information and tickets are available at https://tickets.meowwolf.com/events/ denver/laura-jane-grace/.
Clarke Reader’s column on culture appears on a weekly basis. He can be reached at Clarke.Reader@hotmail.com.
But what you may not have known is that the song is based on is a melody called “Son of a Gambolier” from the 1800s and CSM started using it way back in 1879. at’s more than 30 years before Georgia Tech swiped it and started using it as their own. So, nahnah-nah.

Sometimes it’s not about swinging for the fences
In the summer of 1927, at a high point in America’s love a air with baseball, Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig were embroiled in a widely publicized home run-hitting battle. Both were having career years hitting the long ball and in a 155-game season, Ruth would ultimately hit 60 home runs, with Gehrig hitting 47. Although the end tally does not seem to re ect it, throughout much of the season, these teammates were in close competition for the most home runs. e combination of their home run race and the remarkable strength of the Yankees that year — who nished with a 110-45 regular season record and swept the World Series 4-0 against Pittsburgh, trailing for just one-and-a-half innings throughout the entire series — made the Yankees the team that captured everyone’s attention. During this epic home run battle, Lou Gehrig wrote a syndicated article with this insightful passage, “And now a word about home run hitting. If the ball goes in the bleachers,
WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT
Jim Roome
well and good. If it goes for a single that scores a run, better still. I am proud of my record for driving in runs. I think I have a right to be. And if I live to be ninety and play baseball every day of that time, I will still get a thrill when I pound out a hit that sends a run over the plate.” is article, republished by historian Alan Ga , gives us such insight into Gehrig’s mindset. Gehrig certainly knew a ton about hits. In fact, he had 218 in 1927, almost 1.5 hits per game, an awesome number.
Gehrig’s words and self-proclaimed celebration of “run-scoring hits” got me thinking about how we spend time, in our individual struggles, trying to hit the home run, looking to end the hardship quickly with one heroic action.
I nd, in Gehrig’s comments, a challenge to focus less on the home run and more on “run-scoring hits.” What does “run-scoring hits” mean in our struggles? For me, it means doing my morning exercises with delity and skipping that extra cookie that I think I need. For others, it means small improvements, little changes, maybe an afternoon walk, or time spent practicing a new skill, or even a chance to read a book.

It will most certainly mean something different to each of us.
I would challenge all of us to think about what it means to get “run-scoring hits.” I cannot de ne it for you, but I do know this — hitting “run-scoring hits” entails making a small di erence for yourself or someone else; it is de nitely more than simply breathing that day.
I hope that you nd time to de ne your hits and then will take more time to celebrate the miraculous number of “runscoring hits” you have.
You are amazing. Keep your eyes wide open to all you have and all you will accomplish. You have got this.
I hope my words encourage you, and that you will share them with those who need support. ank you to everyone who has shared their stories with me so far; I truly appreciate hearing about your run-scoring hits and celebrations.

Children as young as 10 can face charges with no court-appointed representation
BY SUZIE GLASSMAN SGLASSMAN@COLORADOCOMMUNITYMEDIA.COM
“Yes, your honor,” a teenager answers, her voice barely audible in the quiet courtroom in March. Lakewood Municipal Court Judge Corin Flannigan has just asked her if she understands the charge against her — ghting in public — and the possible penalties she faces.
“I know you’ve spoken to the city attorney about your options,” Flannigan continues. “ ey are recommending a term of diversion if you choose to plead guilty.”
e girl’s grandmother, standing beside her, hesitates before speaking.
“What happens if she pleads not guilty? She was protecting her property,” she says.
“If you wish to plead not guilty today, you absolutely can, and I will set your case for trial,” Flannigan replies. “Please know that, unlike state court, juvenile cases aren’t eligible for the public defender because no detention or out-ofhome placement is possible. So if you plead not guilty, you would either have to represent yourself or hire your own attorney.”
e girl glances at her grandmother. ey exchange a brief, uncertain look, and Flannigan asks if she wants to plead guilty after all.
e girl nods.
is scenario isn’t an anomaly. It’s routine in municipal courts across Colorado, where children can be prosecuted for minor o enses without court-appointed legal representation unless they face jail time.
Amanda Savage, a visiting assistant
professor at the University of Denver Sturm College of Law, said the disparity in these cases is profound.
“ ere is such a power imbalance any time an individual is in a courtroom, even if they are represented,” Savage said. “You have the power of the city or the state on one side against a single person, even if they have an attorney. And that’s so much more dramatic when it’s a child or a young person, especially when they are standing there by themselves.”
The harsh reality of youth in municipal court ousands of Colorado youth receive municipal citations every year, often for school-related incidents such as ghting, disorderly conduct or petty theft.
According to a 2025 National Center for Youth Law report, Lakewood Municipal Court alone handled over 8,000 youth cases between 2016 and 2022, many of which originated from school-based incidents. e report found that only 1.5% of these cases involved a defense attorney, meaning nearly all children were left to defend themselves.
Not only do the vast majority not have an attorney, but the report highlighted just how young many of the defendants are. In Lakewood, 36 cases involved 10 year olds, 98 involved 11 year olds and 278 involved 12 year olds, most of whom faced court involvement for minor, child-like misbehavior.
Hannah Seigel Pro , a defense attorney representing youth in municipal and state courts across Colorado, said that this pattern of prosecution unnecessar-
ily entangles young children in the legal system and imposes excessive supervision for behaviors that could be handled within families and schools.
Pro believes this over-supervision of youth who don’t have signi cant risks or needs is problematic.
Savage agreed, describing the lasting impact this can have on children’s futures.
“It can certainly set people on a path that involves increasing levels of involvement in the system,” she said. “If they don’t do well while they’re on that diversion or that probation, it can get longer, additional problems can crop up from it, and it can become a big part of that person’s life and future identity.”
A courtroom stacked against kids
Pro emphasized that the system places an undue burden on children and their families.
“You have a system that is designed for adults being applied to children with no modi cations,” she said. “You’re putting children in front of a judge and a prosecutor, without counsel, and expecting them to understand their rights, their legal options and the long-term impact of their decisions.”
Pro noted that many of these children have no way to obtain legal representation.
“In municipal court, they give you a piece of paper with a list of low-cost lawyers, but most of those lawyers don’t take these cases or won’t return calls. So in reality, these kids have no representation at all,” she said. “Without legal rep-
resentation, families do not understand their rights. Prosecutors downplay the severity of the municipal court system, but these cases are often the rst stop on the school-to-prison pipeline.”
e report also highlights another stark disparity — youth in municipal court must pay for discovery, which is the process of obtaining evidence against them. In contrast, evidence is freely available to juveniles in state court. is nancial barrier means many children never see the evidence being used against them before making critical legal decisions.
e report also argues that prosecutors often encourage youth to plead guilty and enter a diversion program, regardless of whether they fully comprehend the long-term consequences. In Colorado’s juvenile justice system, diversion is an alternative to formal prosecution. It aims to prevent further legal involvement by requiring youth to complete certain obligations, such as community service, restitution payments or educational classes, in exchange for dismissed charges.
While intended to keep youth out of the court system, diversion still carries signi cant nancial and time commitments that disproportionately burden low-income families.
Pro said she’d seen the push for families to accept diversion programs — without the families fully understanding the consequences — play out many times.
“What has become clear to me is that the majority of juvenile municipal dockets are kangaroo courts,” Pro said. “Most children are unrepresented, and prosecutors push them to accept diversion sentences before carefully reviewing the facts of the case.”
A guilty plea can also have negative consequences concerning immigration status.
A YouTube video advising Lakewood juveniles of their rights states: “a plea of guilty or nding of conviction or possibly just the charges themselves could a ect your immigration rights. You could be deported, you could lose your ability to become a naturalized citizen and it could a ect your ability to return to the United States if you were to leave the United States.”
Punishment beyond the courtroom e consequences of municipal court involvement extend far beyond a single court appearance. Youth can face nes and fees as high as $2,650, which the National Center for Youth Law report notes are amounts they often cannot pay.
Parents, too, are drawn into the process, sometimes held nancially responsible for their child’s penalties or are required to accompany them to community service, court dates or probation meetings, according to the report.
Savage also noted that the burden doesn’t just fall on the child.
“ ere’s such a huge impact on the whole family when the kid has a municipal court case,” she said. “Because not only does the young person have to be there, but the parent does, too. at means the parent is missing work. e fact is, the parents also have to disrupt their lives and spend time doing this, instead of spending time at work or with their other kids or doing productive things.”
Who benefits from this broken system?
e National Center for Youth Law argues that Colorado’s municipal court system disproportionately impacts lowincome families and youth of color, indicating that schools in lower-income neighborhoods are more likely to call law enforcement for behavior that could be addressed through school disciplinary measures.
e report found that at least 22% of youth cases in Lakewood stemmed from school-based o enses, highlighting a school-to-municipal court pipeline that disproportionately a ects students of color.
e data also showed that the three schools referring the most students to Lakewood’s municipal court have some of the highest percentages of Black and Latino students in the Je erson County school district, reinforcing concerns about racial disparities in school discipline.
Pro said this disproportionate referral pattern raises concerns about how disciplinary decisions are made and whether schools rely too heavily on law enforcement for matters that could be handled through alternative interventions.
She pointed to Littleton’s restorative justice program as an example of an approach that, when implemented thoughtfully, can provide a more meaningful alternative to punitive measures. Pro was particularly impressed by the program’s restorative justice circles, which o er youth the opportunity to engage in community-based resolution rather than facing legal consequences that may not t their situation.
However, she also noted that restorative justice should not be applied as a onesize- ts-all solution and that careful consideration is needed in determining which cases are appropriate for such programs.
In December 2023, Denver City Council unanimously approved a bill to provide free legal representation to minors between the ages of 10 and 18 who are facing municipal violations. is initiative, which took e ect on July 1, 2024, ensures that youth accused of o enses such as alcohol possession, trespassing, theft and minor assault receive appropriate legal counsel.
However, Denver is currently the only county in Colorado o ering public defenders to minors in municipal court settings.
e National Center for Youth Law is now pushing for similar reforms statewide, calling for automatic legal representation for juveniles facing charges in municipal courts.
e center recommends that policymakers enact legislation to eliminate youth nes and fees, raise the minimum age for prosecution, mandate legal repre-
sentation for minors in municipal court and require comprehensive data collection on ticketing and court outcomes. e center also urges police departments to limit or discontinue issuing tickets for school-related o enses and shift discipline away from the legal system. For school districts, it’s calling for revising disciplinary codes to reduce student ticketing for minor infractions and adopting restorative justice practices to address con icts that promote accountability and resolution without legal consequences. Pro believes that the question of whether children should be expected to navigate the complexities of the legal system without an attorney is one of fundamental fairness.
e presence of a lawyer can signicantly change how a young person experiences the legal process, Pro said, helping to demystify the system and ensure that youth feel heard and understand what’s happening.
“Even if the result is the same, even if a kid decides to still take a diversion at the end of things, just having a lawyer there and feeling like it was a fair process has value,” she said. “It makes it less scary. It helps people understand what’s going on.”
She added that many people are unaware that children can be prosecuted without legal counsel — a reality that often comes as a shock.
“ e fact that a child can face prosecution without legal counsel is something that shocks most people when they hear about it,” Pro continued. “It just feels really backwards.”

Even though he’s only 7 years old, Micah has already signed with a college baseball team.
e young Denver-area resident has joined Colorado School of Mines from Team IMPACT. e organization matches children facing serious illnesses and disabilities with college sports teams, “creating a long-term, life-changing experience for everyone involved,” according to its website.
Several Mines teams have welcomed players from Team IMPACT before.
Coach Robby Bales said the baseball team has had three during his 10 seasons coaching at Mines, but Micah is the rst in about ve years.
Micah, who was diagnosed with brain cancer and recently went through chemotherapy treatment, was matched with the Orediggers in December, both Mines and Team IMPACT con rmed.
Bales and his players said, so far, Micah has been a perfect match for the team. He loves baseball and has enjoyed visiting the Orediggers since “signing” with them in December.
“He’s a fearless kid,” junior rst baseman Trent Nielsen said. “He comes in around 40 baseball guys … and he gets right in there. He’s a great sport. He loves being around us, and we love being around him.”
Joining the team
Although he can’t o cially play for Mines — yet — the Orediggers treat him like a member of the team.
Mines hosted a signing day ceremony in December for Micah and his family to
sign ceremonial papers. It also gave him a custom jersey, hat and other swag.
Since then, he and his family have been joining the Orediggers for practices whenever they can, and the players have been helping Micah work on his batting, catching and throwing.
On March 16, Micah showed o his pitching skills as he and his younger brother threw the ceremonial rst pitch at Mines’ doubleheader against New Mexico Highlands.
e Orediggers described Micah as “a battler” with “a heart of gold” who has a great support system of family, friends and youth league teammates. Now, the Orediggers said, they just want to be another branch of that support system.
“We treat him as we would any other teammate,” sophomore utility player Evan Bilter said. “ … We want him to have that feeling of being part of our brotherhood and our team … while he’s going through these di cult times.”
In February, the team hosted a “headshaving party” in solidarity with Micah, who had lost his hair while he was nishing up chemo treatments, according to a press release from Team IMPACT.
Micah and his younger brother shaved the Orediggers’ heads, and the players later said how happy they were to do it.
Junior catcher Tyler Pina said all the Orediggers are immensely proud of Micah for his perseverance, saying “He’s been a huge inspiration for the whole team (with) the grit that he’s shown. … at smile really never leaves his face, and he’s always putting smiles on other people’s faces too.”
Going into the March 16 doubleheader, Bales said Micah and his family haven’t been able to attend many games yet this
season, between Mines’ road schedule and the weather. But he hopes to see them more now that spring is o cially here and Mines has started its conference slate.
All the Orediggers said, if it works out, they’d love to have Micah and his family back next season. Even if he can’t be an o cial player from Team IMPACT, Pina said Micah and his family would always be welcome at Jim Darden Field.
“He’s a great kid to be around,” Pina continued. “ … I wouldn’t have it any other way. I have really enjoyed getting to know Micah and becoming his friend and teammate.”
‘Bigger than baseball’
Both Bales and Nielsen remarked how Micah and Team IMPACT help remind the Orediggers that there are things “big-
ger than baseball,” as Nielsen put it.
Mines does other types of community outreach and has worked with youth players before, but Micah’s presence has been “a breath of fresh air” for the team, Bales said.
“I explained to Micah and his family that we’re going to learn as much from this experience as he’ll learn from our guys,” Bales said. “We’re thrilled that he’s around (and) that he’s a baseball nut.” Bales added how partnering with Team IMPACT and doing other types of community outreach helps him and his players put things in perspective. He described how the Orediggers can be so focused on baseball, they can lose sight of other things.
“What our guys do in life is priceless,” he said. “ … It’s good for us to be reminded of what is really important.”
June 26 event brings international soccer to Commerce City
BY JOHN RENFROW
Local fans of professional women’s soccer have enjoyed 2025 so far in the Denver area. Just two months after the city was awarded the newest National Women’s Soccer League expansion team, a blockbuster matchup has been announced for this summer in Commerce City.
On June 26, soccer enthusiasts can catch the U.S Women’s National Team square up against the Republic of Ireland at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. e star-studded match will be the rst of two meetings between the two teams, with the second coming on June 29 in Cincinnati, Ohio.
e games will be the rst meetings with Ireland since April of 2023, when the USA swept a pair of games in Austin, Texas, and St. Louis, Missouri, ahead of the FIFA Women’s World Cup, according to a release.
“We’re thrilled to have the U.S. Women’s National Team return to Colorado and DICK’S Sporting Goods Park,” said Colorado Rapids President Pádraig Smith. “We’ve been honored to host and sup-
port the USWNT over the years, and we’re proud of the impact that Coloradans have on the squad. I am personally excited to welcome my home team of Eire and to another incredible showcase for women’s soccer in our state.”
Colorado is the home state of several current USWNT players, including team captain Lindsey Heaps (Golden) and forwards Sophia Wilson (Windsor) and Mallory Swanson (Highlands Ranch). Heaps is a Golden High School graduate and played for the Colorado Rush Soccer Club.
She made history as the rst American female player to sign a professional contract straight out of high school, traveling to Europe to play for Paris Saint-Germain in France in 2012 upon graduation. Heaps’s long list of accolades includes: 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup Champion 2024 Olympic Gold Medalist 2021 Olympic Bronze Medalist 2021 U.S. Soccer Female Player of the Year 2013 U.S. Soccer Young Female Player of the Year Swanson attended Mountain Vista High School and famously scored the goal to lift the USWNT to Olympic gold in a 1-0 match over Brazil in 2024.
Like Heaps, Swanson is also a 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup Champion. She’s also a 2024 Olympic Gold Medalist and the 2015 U.S. Soccer Young Female Player of the Year. is will be the 16th meeting between
the U.S. and Ireland squads. e U.S. has won every matchup so far. is will be the USWNT’s ninth match all-time at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. e USA is 7-0-1 at the venue, with the most recent game being Head Coach Emma Hayes’ debut last summer.
